“The foolish man seeks happiness
In the distance,
The wise grows under his feet.”
-James Oppenheim

What is real?
What is security?
When I’m just working every day
For the money,

I might buy a house
For the feeling of security,
So I have a permanent place
To live.

So I work and work
For the dream,
In the future,
I would have happiness.

I do not think
That is a real dream,
The real security is in the mind,
When I truly feel it.

My thought is everything,
At each moment in time,
When I’m in the present moment,
I’m discovering the truth.

I stick to the truth,
The feeling of it
Gives me a sense of security,
So I always have the right thought.

A poet, like a bluejay trying to make you happy, I can make it if you see me every day, and you talk to me as you wish, I'd love to sing to respond to the voice
